I just moved from the Burncoat area....Was 2 minutes from the Prison..My work.....
Now I live next to WPI....What a small small world.......

They are Nice people At The Pub...

Thanks for your kind words welcome& invite...

Too funny, I am about 2 min from the prison too. I see them jogging in the mornings on my way to work. That was a sight to see the first time! I am off 70 across from Dinky's.

It is a small world! My sister is a trooper and I know someone who worked at the prison.

Let me know if you need anything.

Thanks I will....

The joggers are the Academy guys....Next time you see them it may be in the fall....Toot and give them a hard time.....If its a warm morning and you have your car window open if you see a name on the back of the shirt slow down toot and yell their name.....Within minutes the Drill Sgt will have that person running circles around the crew while the crew is running, while he is singing a cadence song.....I know.:o..My jerk friends did me in quite a few times....
In all seriousness its just funny.....

That is funny! My son LOVES yelling out the window to people. I will have to tell him that one. He gets a kick out of it. He will yell HI or Nice shirt. He yelled FOUR to the mini golf place.

Too bad that was you once!

Hi,
I was told this may be a good forum area to post although I don't have MS, I may have everything else:) If anyone has a problem with me posting here please speck up...I just know I need human contact and support and I have no one IRL that I can talk to. My nerves are damaged forever, it will only get worse, never better, I have only one sister that believes me and she no longer lives with me due to my obnoxious husband and son. Anyway I am 51 and always feel alone, constant pain, muscles spasms, wake up most nights with my legs drawn up and feel like I have to break them loose. My life stinks!

Hello Junie and welcome to the MS forum :)

I don't think you find anyone who has a problem with you being on this forum. Although we are a MS forum we get many posting who do not have MS.

Make yourself at home and join in anywhere ;)

Thank you,
I have a feeling I will be needing support tonight since my hubby and 2 of my sons are going to sit outside and drink tonight! I hate drunks! I wish every drop of alcohol would vanish forever!

Hi, I'm new here too...
 

But not too new to MS.

I'm Sandra know as sw8689 on msworld too. I was dx'd in 2000 when I had my first prevelent attack and within a year lost my career to MS. The beta interferons didn't work for me so I had mitoxantrone and that put me into remission and I have had stable mri's for almost four years now and walk and hike with no problems. Most serious problems are fatigue, bladder, pain and spacticity.

I am looking after my MIL who has dementia right now, she is living with my husband and I, and that has taken up all of my energy and time. And sometimes my smiles.

But otherwise, life is pretty good, I like to garden, hang with grown children, play with my dog, and generally enjoy this beautiful life I have been given.

Thanks Cheryl for hooking me up to this forum! And I look forward to meeting my old friends and making new ones.

Do you two hear the Twilight Zone theme music playing? :D

I spent a few years in Berlin, MA. I went to Tahanto Regional High School in Boylston. I used to volunteer at Worcester County Hospital...and I know where Spag's was!

Hello Sandra and welcome to NeuroTalk.

I'm glad Cheryl pointed you in this direction. Take a look around and jump in anywhere, there is alot to explore here at NeuroTalk.

Sandra found us!! I remember you. I always enjoyed your posts. I hope you have time to spend with us every now and then.

We are in similar situations right now. My grandmother just moved in with us because she is suffering from dementia. It is so sad and hard to watch someone struggle with dementia. There are things that happen that just make me cry because it isn't right that her mind should be taken from her.

Hi Sandra - I'm so glad you found your way over here! :)

I'm sorry to hear about your MIL's dementia. It's a cruel disease that both my Mom and sister suffered from so I know the challenges you're facing. Your MIL sounds like a very fortunate lady to be able to live with you.

I hope you'll dive right in here....this place is awesome!! I was over at MSW, too, for a while.

Hi everybody,
I wanted to say hi to you all here too. I introduced myself on the intro thread but forgot to add that I had MS.DUH!!:confused::eek: I did go back and add that later.:D

I was dx'ed with MS in april 06. My neuro believes that I've had it since I was very young. I have had vision problems since before I was 5yrs old. I remember when I had my first eye apt. The optometrist took out these binocular like glasses and put them on me..:eek:...Oh my gosh I was so scared that I was going to have to wear them forever! I remember he told my mom our color tv caused the damage to my eyes. :rolleyes: Of course my current Dr. said no way!(That was the new technology way back then) Yes! I'm old LOL...

I recognize a lot of names from MSW. Some might remember.... I lurked more than anything.. I had some time to post, but as soon as my daughter started walking participating in any kind of thread was not happening, lol
I type slow! Like 5 words a min.:o And that added to my slow brain waves = HOURS typing one reply (no kidding):o
Hopefully I'll be able to get more involved now that she plays better on her own.
Hope to talk you all soon...
Jami

Hello Jami and welcome to NeuroTalk.

Yes, I remember you ;)

Please look around and jump in anywhere.

Welcome, Jami. I'm so glad you're here.:) I haven't been to MSW in ages, so I don't remember you from there, but with my memory, maybe I do...LOL

Newbie here, also from SW Ohio. My name is Lewis Chapman and I'm a 42 yo., white male from Dayton, Ohio. I've had MS for 7 years now and am in the extension arm of the Tovaxin trial. I was the tenth patient in the IIb and have already had my fourth shot. I'm brand new here but heard about this board on another and thought I'd check it out.

Hi Neighbor..:Wave-Hello:..I'm just a hop and a skip from you, in Kettering. Maybe you know my SSon....he's your age and in Dayton.

We have another here, in the Tovaxin Trial..(Av8girl) I think she has an update thread here. Join in..:)

Welcome Home, Loobie.

:Wave-Hello: Hello Lewis and welcome to NeuroTalk :)

I'm betting most of what you heard about us isn't true ;) Good luck with Tovaxin.

Hi New...
 

Hello

I'm new here. A friend of mine suggested the site, so here I am.

I am 34, married, mother of 2 (a daughter 10, and a son 3). I have MS. Multiple active lesions in cervical & thoracic spinal area and brain. Optic Neuritis & Spinal Stenosis. My latest flares have been on and off for the last 4 months and seem to be related to the newest lesions that have shown up on my recent July MRI.

I am a business owner working a critically low part time (not yet making income but trying) and I am also a Certified Reiki Master. On disability until I can get the income thing working for me. I have high hopes that someday I can support myself successfully without the need for SS help.

I am a generally happy person.

I look forward to seeing what this site is all about and meeting new friends.

Peace!
~Ra:)

Hey Everyone
 

I just wanted to say hello. I was diagnosed in 1988, have tried it all, just about. Did all the injections, chemotherapy, but no Tysabri. I am currently doing Rebif, but it has lost it thrill! I'd like to find out more specifics with LDN.

Hello, Jughead and welcome to NeuroTalk :)

We have a LDN check-in and question thread:

Ask your question(s) either on that thread or start a new thread, there are several here who use LDN.
